After playing the Portland wedding (see last post) we hit the train to Seattle where I got to play at the legendary Little Red Hen!
It was amazing to see the local family and friends who came out and made it such a special night!
Special thanks to @casey.freedom.music for booking me and backing me up on lead guitar, along with the rest of the super talented house band πΈπ₯π€πΆ
It was such an honor playing my bestie’s wedding in Portland, including her pre-wedding Halloween party!
You get a lot of attention traveling on planes and buses with a Captain America shield lemme tell you π€£ . Lots of comments and shouts, but the craziest was when a guy ran at me in the street pretending to battle me during a midnight stroll back to our hotel, and Nixie and I totally thought we were getting mugged for a sec haha
I’ve NEVER arranged a classical piece but my buddy wanted to walk down the isle to an instrumental version of one of her fave romance songs so I rose to the challenge. I created a beautiful arrangement but it was def outside of my comfort zone and skill level. So I practiced everyday for 2 weeks! Then super nervous but focused I did indeed pull it off!! π Phew didn’t ruin a wedding π
You can hear my arrangement of Steven Sanchez’s “Until I Found You” in the 2nd to last slide.
It was a gorgeous wedding and I love @ellenfether to death and her completely awesome new husband @jontonfookes

My latest single got published in Music Connection Magazine! π
I couldn’t have done it without my buddy @mckayallday who co-produced, mixed/mastered, immersive mixed/mastered, and played drums, bass, synth and more on this cosmic track.
“Trapped in Infinity” came out on streaming platforms 2 months ago and already has over 9k Spotify streams. Thanks so much everyone who’s been listening! πππ

From li’l Zorro with my dad, to big Zorro jamming with my buddy’s daughter, feels a bit full circle. Playing the TreasureFest acoustic stage was awesome!! ππ»

We now have visual canvases for all the @willowsteps songs on Spotify! Since “Saline Sand” is about healing at Burning Man from a broken heart and a physical injury, I used footage my brother took when we went to the festival ποΈ
Thanks @nathanabercrombie π

In our deepest pain we grow the most and in darkness light is most potent. I make music to guide people back to the light because thatβs what music has always done for meβ¦
